Description+
A four-inch standing elephant with downward tusk; hand-turned on the lathes of Channapatna and finished in a warm mustard yellow with folk-paint accents in red and green. Small enough to fit a child's palm and finished in non-toxic vegetable dyes; this little elephant doubles as a safe; screen-free toy and a quiet object on a shelf. The downward tusk is read as a sign of grounded; protective presence. A small heirloom from the GI-tagged Karnataka craft cluster.
